Vancouver, British Columbia – NV Gold Corporation (TSX:V: NVX; OTCQX: NVGLF) (“NV Gold” or the “Company) is pleased to announce that it will be re-entering drill hole ARC-6C and extending it up to an additional 600 meters. As announced in its news release dated March 1, 2018, diamond drill hole ARC-6C intercepted carbonate-bearing sedimentary rocks thought to belong to the lower plate of the Roberts Mountain thrust fault at its 100% controlled Across the Valley (“ATV”) Gold Project in north-central Nevada.

Recent close review of this intercept suggests it may indeed belong to the Comus Formation, an important ore-hosting unit in the region. Orebodies at the nearby Twin Creeks (Newmont) and Turquoise Ridge (Barrick and Newmont) mines are hosted by Comus Formation. After cutting approximately 120 m of this important rock unit, hole ARC-6C was terminated at 477.3 m.

NV Gold recently undertook a comparison of the relative position of the ARC-6C intercept with the more permissive parts of the Comus Formation that host orebodies at Twin Creeks. Based on this review, NV Gold thinks the intercept in hole ARC-6C is near the top of the Comus Formation and the hole should be deepened up to 600 m more to fully test the potential of this unit. Drilling is expected to begin shortly.

The ATV gold project encompasses approximately 13,000 acres of lode mining claims on Bureau of Land Management lands and fee ground leased from Oro Vaca Ranch and is situated approximately 10 km southeast of the Twin Creeks and Turquoise Ridge mines on the Getchell trend. Mines of the Getchell trend have produced over 20 Moz gold from Carlin-type deposits hosted by Paleozoic sedimentary rocks, especially carbonate-bearing units of the lower plate of the Roberts Mountain thrust. NV Gold targeted the underexplored ATV area based on structural modeling that suggests faulted extensions of lower plate host rocks of the Getchell trend might be buried under young alluvium and volcanic rocks in this area.

NV Gold’s CEO, John Watson commented “We feel confident the rocks we have intercepted in hole ARC-6C are indeed Comus Formation and that we are near the top of that important ore-hosting unit. We think more prospective parts of the stratigraphy may lie in the 600 m of rock below the end of this hole. Therefore, we plan to extend ARC-6C up to 600 m further. This work should begin very soon and drilling should be completed over the next few weeks.”
